Liver-gut link study for liver disease patients and their families
Part of Digestive system, Immune system & allergy, Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at how gut bacteria differ in people with specific liver diseases and their household contacts. It may help researchers understand the connection between the liver and gut.

This study looks at what drives non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and how it affects the body, including immune-related changes. You may be invited if you have confirmed fatty liver disease or, alternatively, if you are a healthy person with no liver disease.
This study collects and stores samples from people with PSC (primary sclerosing cholangitis), PBC (primary biliary cholangitis), and some related liver conditions. Researchers use these samples to better understand these diseases and support future research.
This study looks at the bacteria in your gut (microbiome) and how your body responds to liver disease. Researchers want to learn if these factors can help improve care for people with liver problems.
This study looks at how gut bacteria change in people with liver cirrhosis and whether these changes relate to how the disease progresses. It may help find new ways to monitor or treat cirrhosis.
This study looks at the bacteria in the gut of people with liver cirrhosis to better understand how they relate to the disease. By joining, you help researchers learn more about cirrhosis, which may lead to better care in the future.
This study looks at adults with different long-term liver conditions that are associated with fatty liver. It helps researchers better understand these diseases and factors linked to them.
